QT 5.01 available for Classic Mac OS

Craig Isley and many others confirm the availability of QuickTime 5.01 for Mac OS 8/9, as reported late yesterday:

"I have confirmed what I just learned in the MacNN forum that if you run the QuickTime 4 Updater in Mac OS 9.1 it detects, downloads, and installs version 5.0.1 of QuickTime. "The installer warns that if you want to use QuickTime's Pro features you have to buy a new key for QuickTime 5 Pro. No official word from Apple as to exactly what new features QuickTime 5 Pro has compared to QT 4 Pro - to justify the upgrade cost. Actually, there's no mention of the release of the final version of QuickTime 5 for 'Classic' Mac OS 9 at all on Apple's website."

    Doesn't work

    I think Apple removed version 5.0.1. As of 10:00am ET, the 4.1.2 Updater app doesn't recognize version 5.0.1.

    Ditto here.

    I try to update it, and it says there is nothing to download and that I am up to date.... I think Apple yanked it too.

    windows too

    I was at a friends house last night, and I wanted to watch a movie on her windows computer. I downloaded the 4.12 installer, and it said that there was a new version of the installer available. When it downloaded, it installed QT 5.01 for windows

    QT Pro

    I installed 5.0.1 via the update last nite. I upgraded to QT4 Pro a week ago and the installer updated all pro features to 5.

    Not Available

    Attempted download but was told by installer "no new software was needed." Since then Version Tracker listing has been removed. The Apple QT site never listed 5.0.1 as being available, only Preview 3

    Argh...

    ...I need to get a new registration key just to continue using QuickTime Pro? It's not only that the new features probably aren't that big a deal! The main feature QT Pro has that matters to people is the fact that it won't show that annoying "Upgrade to QT Pro" screen every time you play a movie! For most of us, that's the one benefit of QT Pro worth caring about. We have to pay another $30 just to keep this feature?!

    Upgrading QT5

    The only reason you have to upgrade is because your QT3 Pro key worked in QT4, now that it is going to 5, older QT pro keys don't work. If you have a QT4 pro key it will work.

    Anyway it is only $30 for Apples sake pay-up for this great technology or go use media player or real player (really soon out of business)

    For everything that QT pro does $30 is SUPER CHEAP!!

    And as for feature in QT5.0.1 as a Apple developer, I can tell you that the Professionals (Audio, Video and multimedia users) out there will love QT even more then ever.

    Did anybody notice the fact that Final Cut Pro can offer real time effects with the matrox RTMac and QT5. This also applies to Adobe Premeire and After Effects.

    One last thing that upgrade to QT Pro only shows up only once per start-up.
